  • Patent number: 8756918
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a dosing module (1) for dosing an urea-based reducing agent into a exhaust gas stream of combustion engine and addressed to an after-treatment system, (30) e.g. SCR or SCRT system. The module (1) comprises an housing (20) which develops along a longitudinal axis (X) and an inlet opening (19) for conveying the exhaust gas. Dosage means (55) are provided for dosing the reducing agent. According to the invention, the inlet opening is annular and inclined with respect to the axis (X) of the housing (20) so as to generate an exhaust gas inlet jet (AJ). Moreover the dosage means are designed so as to generate, inside the housing (20), an urea-based reducing agent spray (UWS) coaxial to the axis (X) of the housing (20).

  • Patent number: 8752365
    Abstract: The present invention provides for a method for dosing an urea-based reducing agent into a exhaust gas stream generated from a combustion engine and addressed to an aftertreatment system, e.g. SCR or SCRT system. According to the method of the invention the gas exhaust stream is conveyed into a dosing housing which develops along a longitudinal axis. In particular the gas is conveyed by generating an annular inlet jet inclined with respect of said axis. The urea-based reducing agent is injected by generating, inside the housing, an urea-based reducing agent spray which is preferably coaxial to said axis of the housing.
